Three Wins the Night Three Times Last Week

Three has taken out a trio of overall night wins in the past week, winning on Monday (26.0% audience share), Tuesday (25.0% audience share) and Sunday (25.7% audience share) evenings amongst the commercially important 25-54 demographic. Three’s unshakable local lineup on Monday night saw The Block NZ win its timeslot with a mammoth 32.9% share and 9.5 rating point, followed by Westside* with a 23.6% share and 7.1 rating.

Both shows are also excelling digitally with The Block NZ taking out the top spot on ThreeNow since the show’s premiere nine weeks ago, and its behemoth performance shows no signs of slowing down. The Block NZ's VOD streams also are up 38% year-on-year and live streams up 69% year-on-year.

The fourth season of Westside* has set a performance record on ThreeNow with VOD streams up 15% on the record set by last year’s third season. Live streams are also up 66% compared to last year, and across the season it has been the second-highest ranking show on ThreeNow, behind The Block NZ.
